I have this same family at:
http://www.ipns.com/katie/roots/xtra/jacob.html
with my main LAMB page at
http://www.ipns.com/katie/roots/lamb.html
I have lots of STONE information at
http://www.ipns.com/katie/roots/stone.html but not the same family (or is
it?) and do not know who the family of Sarah STONE is...

I have Catherine LAMB, b. 1775, daughter of Jacob LAMB and Sarah
STONE
in my lines. I hope someone can use this information, and if someone
connects to Jacob LAMB, let me know if you have other data I can use.
The below article was in our family files, and was written by Leudoska
Benbow Byrkett, daughter of Enos Benbow and Mary Modlin and wife of E.
B. Byrkett. Leudoska's sister was Josie Benbow, my ggrandmother & wife
of my ggrandfather, William F. Walls.

Generation No. 3
3. Isaac3 Elliott (Katherine2 Lamb, Jacob1). He married Rachel

Notes for Rachel Overman:
From: "A Hoosier List----by Kate Mill----" Probably Indianapolis Star
or a newspaper named the Star of Wayne County, IN?
"I have just read the interesting article in today's Star concerning the
wedding hats of Exum and Catherine Lamb Elliott, early residents of
Wayne county," writes Mrs. E. B. Byrket of Knightstown, Ind. "It seems
to me that the ones who have preserve these articles through all these
years should be highly commended. Such things are tangible links which
connect us with the dear old people of generations past. This Exum and
Catherine Elliott were also my great-great grandparents, their son Issac
being by ancestor. Issac Elliott married Rachel Overman in the year 1818
and entered government land in Grant county in 1828, where the national
military home is now located. The brick house they built in later life
now forms a part of the builings there.
"Rachel Overman Elliott was the daughter of Ephraim and Rachel Small
Overman, also residents of Wayne county. Ephraim wwas a member of the
territorial Legislature, also a member of the first state Legislature.
These people were all of sterling character and my mother, who passed
away last December at the age of 92, told me many notable incidents in
the lives of Isaac and Rachel Elliott. They reared a large family and at
various times took into their home grandchildren, nephews and others and
sent them to school. They held a high standard in both religion and
education. Isaac Elliott died in 1871 and Rachel followed in 1873. I
have in my possession and prize highly their pictures and the pictures
of some of their children. In the hurry of the present day I like to
pause occasionally and pay tribute to these early pioneers who did so
much to make life more pleasant for their posterity."
Child of Isaac Elliott and Rachel Overman is:
4 i. Catherine4 Elliott, born in NC.
